If you want a great turnout for a cause, one thing has to be a staple: food.

The competition for which house makes the best wings is on as Thursday the Interfraternity Council at the University of Florida hosted its annual philanthropy Chicken Wing Charity Thing.

The event is held each year in order to raise money for Dance Marathon at UF. Last year’s total from the event was $10,000, a number that IFC would love to beat.

As for what the event is, it’s a buffet that will liven up your taste buds with of course, chicken wings. Each IFC chapter was in charge or providing their own unique flavors of wings from delicious classics like BBQ and buffalo to daring flavors such as teriyaki and strawberry BBQ.

College Chef's Kyla Radziejewski of Lambda Chi Alpha, was in charge of providing the wings for the chapter and describes making the wings as a slow and steady process to get the flavors just right.

“In the kitchen it's important to be really methodical and creative, you don’t want to be boring but use ingredients which hit you just right with flavor,” Radziejewski said.

College Chefs, a Greek food solution, not only catered Lambda Chi, but also has chefs at Kappa Alpha, Pi Kappa Phi and Sigma Nu that cooked and catered mouthwatering wings that had tables cleared within minutes.

When the wings are all set they are brought over to their respected spot where curious eyes and hungry stomachs await to see what each chapter has provided.

Aside from the wings, several members of the Panhellenic Council provided exquisite desserts from chunky chocolate chip cookies to fudge brownies to complement the wings and to compete as well for the title of best dessert.


After attendants made their rounds, it was time to dig in as numerous tables were laid out where everyone could enjoy the outdoors.

From wings, desserts to dunk tanks - the Greek and UF community had a great time supporting a good cause while filling up their stomachs, what more can one ask for on a Thursday afternoon?


College Chefs is the creative food solution exclusively for fraternities and sororities around the U.S. A culinary company first, their Chefs are world-class talents whose backgrounds range from former restaurant owners to genuine, trained foodies who are just looking to break into the industry.

Course registration at college can be a big hassle and is almost never talked about. Classes you want to take fill up before you get a chance to register. You might change your mind about a class you want to take and must struggle to find another class to fit in the same time period. You also have to make sure no classes clash by time. Like I said, it's a big hassle.

This semester, I was waitlisted for two classes. Most people in this situation, especially first years, freak out because they don't know what to do. Here is what you should do when this happens.

Ever since I could remember, it was a treat to receive Easter Bread made by my grandmother. We would only have it once a year and the wait was excruciating. Now that my grandmother has gotten older, she has stopped baking a lot of her recipes that require a lot of hand usage--her traditional Italian baking means no machines. So for the past few years, I have missed enjoying my Easter Bread.

Top 10 Reasons My School Rocks!

Why I Chose a Small School Over a Big University.

I was asked so many times why I wanted to go to a small school when a big university is so much better. Don't get me wrong, I'm sure a big university is great but I absolutely love going to a small school. I know that I miss out on big sporting events and having people actually know where it is. I can't even count how many times I've been asked where it is and I know they won't know so I just say "somewhere in the middle of Wisconsin." But, I get to know most people at my school and I know my professors very well. Not to mention, being able to walk to the other side of campus in 5 minutes at a casual walking pace. I am so happy I made the decision to go to school where I did. I love my school and these are just a few reasons why.
